@jdflynn Too young to step into the pitch, eh?

[Deacon Matt @MatthewOchalek]

Our struggle is not against enemies of blood and flesh, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers of this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.
- Ephesians 6:12

@Maloney Have the decency to delete your lies and tell the truth.

“Together with my brother bishops, we condemn political violence, and we offer our prayers for President Trump, and those who were killed or injured. We also pray for our country and for an end to political violence, which is never a solution to political disagreements."

@kalezelden High school theology teacher and campus minister here. This is now mission territory. Please pray that the Lord sends more faithful workers into the vineyard.

@DaultRadio @matt_k007 If I may, was your friend referring to a turban, a kirpan, or something else? Regardless, it is a great attitude!

[Deacon Matt @MatthewOchalek]

@My_ComicRelief I was honored to be seated beside you. It was like being next to one of these legends. 😉

Check out the "Daily Holy Spirit" chapter in Hallow: https://t.co/682stvQSq8

@drew_deacon I’m privileged to have my ministry for the bill for me, and I generally dislike celebrity, but I have greatly benefited from Hallow. Most importantly, it is a great introduction to contemplative prayer that the Church desperately needs today. I am grateful for it.

@rightscholar Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at [him].

@areyousurebruv While I think the idea is *technically* true, I find it counterproductive in the formation and examination of conscience.

Teach us to find our joy in your favor! Lord, we have within us your memorial, received at your spiritual table; let us possess it in its full reality when all things shall be made new. #SaintEphrem #Eucharist #EucharisticRevival #FeastDay (3/3)

[Deacon Matt @MatthewOchalek]

In your sacrament we daily embrace you and receive you into our bodies; make us worthy to experience the resurrection for which we hope. #SaintEphrem #Eucharist #EucharisticRevival #FeastDay (1/3)

[Deacon Matt @MatthewOchalek]

We have had your treasure hidden within us ever since we received baptismal grace; it grows ever richer at your sacramental table. #SaintEphrem #Eucharist #EucharisticRevival #FeastDay (2/3)

[Deacon Matt @MatthewOchalek]

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord,
and let perpetual light shine upon him.
May he rest in peace. Amen.
